“Loki” and “Thor” phones are actually part of the Xiaomi Mix lineup

“Loki” and “Thor” phones are actually part of the Xiaomi Mix lineup Earlier this week a leak suggested that a second version of the upcoming Xiaomi 12 Ultra is in the works. However, the same “Loki” and “Thor” codenames associated with model numbers 2203121C and 2203121AC popped up on a Chinese certification website.

Screenshots from the certifications

The listings clearly state that the certified phones belong to Xiaomi’s Mix series. The listings are only for the Chinese market but that might change in the future. Judging by previous Mi Mix generations, at least one of the two versions will step outside of China.

The new report may not be that…

These are the loudest phones of the year

These are the loudest phones of the year We first launched our new speakerphone test back in early 2020 and about year and a half later, we have a solid database of phones that went through our review process. As we wrap up the year 2021, we would like to show you the loudest phones to go through our review process this year.

The list is all about loudness and not quality. A separate article going through the best-sounding smartphones is in the works so stay tuned for that. The scores are not about peak loudness during a burst, but we measure the average loudness across a series of audio tracks, which is more relevant to…

Weekly poll; what do you think of Motorola’s five new Moto G phones?

Weekly poll; what do you think of Motorola’s five new Moto G phones? Motorola unveiled five new Moto G phones this week – the G-series has offered quite a few value-for-money mid-rangers over the years, but Moto’s definition of “mid-range” is quite broad this generation.

Let’s start with the Moto G200 5G. We’re not going to burden it with the title “flagship killer” as that tends to start arguments, but this phone offers a Snapdragon 888+ chipset, a 144Hz display and a 108MP camera all on a budget of €450. Sure, it doesn’t have Galaxy S21 Ultra’s telephoto cameras, but the G200 is less than half the price, even with the discounts on the Samsung…

Weekly poll results: Poco M4 Pro 5G’s success is contingent on a lower price

Weekly poll results: Poco M4 Pro 5G’s success is contingent on a lower price The Poco fanbase is price sensitive – that €50 price hike on the Poco M4 Pro 5G was not a popular move among the voters in last week’s poll. Sure, the phone brings some upgrades over the 6-month old model it is replacing, but the Poco M-series shouldn’t fly above its allotted price range.

The M4 Pro did and it clashed with the Poco X3 Pro, the X-series being higher end than the M. This isn’t the first time a company’s rich (or crowded) product lineup causes internal conflicts like this.

Looking at the poll and the comments, the phone received only a 20% positive vote, which grows to…
